✓Run on-prem or any public cloud.
✓40-70% savings on legacy support while planning.

Monolithic Complexity

Your monolithic applications are too complex to split without a total software rewrite, making modernization seem impossible.

State Management Lock-in

Proprietary state management mechanisms in older software frameworks lock you into AIX-specific patterns.

File System Dependencies

Deep application dependencies on local Unix file systems and storage arrays create fear of data loss or downtime.

IBM AIX → Red Hat OpenShift migration — your questions answered

How do you migrate IBM AIX to Red Hat OpenShift?+

Our process deconstructs your monolithic applications on AIX and rebuilds them as cloud-native microservices on OpenShift, preserving business logic while modernizing the architecture.

Can I keep my existing AIX vendor support while migrating?+

Yes. Your vendor contract remains active, so you can migrate on your timeline without a forced cutover. If it lapses, our third-party support covers most operational issues.

What about applications with deep dependencies on AIX file systems?+

We handle those dependencies by abstracting storage and state management as part of the containerization process, ensuring no data loss.

What is the typical timeline and cost?+

Projects run 8-18 months with 4-8 senior consultants, budgeted at $250,000–$2,000,000 for a fixed-scope engagement.
